Stayin’ alive

By Maria Gregoriou

So you’ve been promised a lot of partying this weekend, and partying you shall have at the Disco carnival at Diachroniki music stage in Nicosia on Sunday.

The music stage promises to put on a full-on fiesta which is hoping to be crowned this year’s best carnival party (so it must be good).

This isn’t the first time the club-like stage has put on a disco night, it has had two more chances to perfect a night of fun. So get ready to travel back to the 70s and 80s music scene and then a bit further forward, bringing you up to the 90s.

As for what to wear, let your imagination go wild, get something with glitter on it, or even go around in skates, the world of dress-up is your oyster!

This blast from the past will be captained by disco king DJ Mike Wildcut who, after playing for years in London’s premium Roller Skate Discos and members-only 80s clubs, returns to Nicosia to give us all an unforgettable night.

So while Wildcut will be doing his thing on the decks, you will be sure to be stayin’ alive.
